Teaser Tuesday (27)

Yay for "Teaser Tuesday" from MizB of Should be Reading!!

Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. Anyone can play along! Just do the following:



  • Grab your current read
  • Open to a random page
  • Share two (2) “teaser” sentences from somewhere on that page
  • BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS! (make sure that what you share doesn’t give too much away! You don’t want to ruin the book for others!)
  • Share the title & author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers! 

My teaser Tuesday pick:


" Stock the lumber room of your mind with as many facts as you can fit in there. Don't attempt to distinguish between important facts and trivial facts: they're all potentially important.  "



p 53 "Death Cloud" by Andrew Lane (see my review of this one here)

    Great teaser! I think my students would enjoy this book. I will have to keep my eye out for it and pick it up at the book store. It would be a nice addition to my Sherlock Holmes unit!

    That is so true! Sometimes you need to know all facts (proven and unproven) in order to make an educated decision!

    Holmes is always good. Be interested to see how this author handles him.

    That's some very good, very sage advice:) I'm seeing this book around a lot lately, I'm a fan of the Holmes mysteries so I think I need to add this one to the list. Thanks for the teaser Carrie!
